This is not understandable to me. From the description I would assume 
this tool runs on the host machine.

If the tool runs on the host machine, should this not be a pure -native
recipe without this line e.g. named bootconfig-native.bb

Is bootconfig a good name for a recipe? Or should it be e.g. linux-
bootconfig-native.bb?


Side note: We need to be careful not to create a dependency of the
initramfs on the kernel build directory. Such a dependency would
essentially invalidate the sstate-cache for the kernel, which we want
to avoid.

Adrian
